Song of the Week 01: Rhapsidio Sangre De Cristo
Robert Maxwell Case • April 3, 2018
“Rhapsidio Sangre de Cristo” is an instrumental written by Marty Stuart. He and his band performed it on the RFD-TV network on June 7, 2014 and also on the Bill Gaither Music DVD “The Gospel Music of Marty Stuart.” The song is named for the mountain range in northern New Mexico and southern Colorado and the name translates as “the blood of Christ.” Our version is featured on our second CD, “Mountain Storm.” We sought to capture the Southwest vibe of Norman Petty Studios in Clovis, NM, home of iconic instrumental groups The Fireballs and The String-A-Longs.
